Hospital?

So, today was totally unproductive as far as homework goes.. I slept from about 3:30-6:30 this morning, and at 6:30 my roommate Allie came out into the kitchen (i slept on the couch). She was complaining of really bad stomach pain, to the point where she was throwing up and doubled over crying, poor darling. So, we woke up Sam and he took us to the hospital. Well, it turns out Allie had acute appendicitis and had to have emergency surgery. I stayed at the hospital with her all day, from 7:00-4:30. Thank goodness, everything turned out well. Allie's surgery went really well, and she's doing fine, but meanwhile, i didn't think to grab my homework, so i didn't do much. Actually, the only thing i thought to grab on my way out was a banana and a granola bar. And i thought to brush my teeth. Thank goodness. but that's it.. no changing clothes (good thing i fell asleep in my jeans!), or brushing hair, or fixing contacts.. just grab food and run.
I really like hospitals.. maybe it's my fascination with health, but everything they do seems so neat. Frustrating at times, but neat.. i like wandering around looking at the different chemicals and such, and what they do, and finding out the purpose of the different machines. i even like the smell to a certain extent.. yeah, i'm odd.
It's funny to me how crazy tired you can get from sitting in a hospital all day.. i didn't do anything except sit with Allie for hours, or in the waiting room when she was in surgery, but it's still draining and exhausting. I fell asleep in a chair for a few minutes, while Allie was dozing, totally without meaning to. My amazing roommate Kate brought me a delicious lunch (dry cereal, a half-eaten can of applesauce, and a PB&J sandwich.. but i loved it =]), so that gave me a bit more energy, but it's still weird how exhausted i am..
After i got home from the hospital at 4:30, i ate dinner, and took an 1 1/2 hour nap, which helped immensely.. worked on some homework, ate another dinner, worked on more homework, and now it's homework time again!! yay for being a college kid with a test tomorrow.. :)
And i'm amazed i managed to make my day last for this long of a post.
